Why It’s Important for Military Divorce Lawyers to Have Served

People in the military are obviously courageous, selfless heroes who have in recent years been willing and more than able to throw themselves into combat zones for the good of the United States. Civilians rightfully look upon these soldiers with respect and admiration for what they do on a daily basis, and while that’s a very healthy thing indeed, that also tends to mean that we forget that soldiers are also human like everyone else. Soldiers can encounter problems with their marriages just like civilians, and this is particularly true given the fact that so many of them have left home for so long.

Unfortunately, the rate of military divorces has risen in recent years, and that has come as no surprise to people who understand the nature of both divorce and the military. That doesn’t mean it’s any less painful for a soldier to go through this process. Below you will find a brief overview as to why it’s important for any soldier facing a divorce to retain a San Diego military divorce lawyer who has served in the armed forces.

Perspective on Family Challenges

The life of a soldier is very different from that of a civilian. They live on base in many cases, their jobs are their lives in many situations and the dangers that they face are almost completely unique from any other profession. This doesn’t even take into account the fact that soldiers can be separated from their families for months or even years at a time. A family law attorney who has served understands what that’s like and he or she will understand how difficult it can be to maintain a family in this situation. He or she will also understand how painful it is when it doesn’t work out.

Knowledge of Military Divorce Particularities

In addition to having a much deeper understanding of the life of a soldier than a typical civilian, a San Diego military divorce lawyer who has served in the armed forces will also understand the laws, rules and norms that apply to military divorces that tend to be different from civilian divorces. These differences are important because they can make all the difference when it comes to such things as retirement benefits, child custody and other issues that are central to any divorce case whether it’s civilian or military in nature.

The Ability to Empathize

No one knows what it’s like to be an active duty soldier unless that person is or was an active duty soldier. That’s simply the fact of the matter that’s undeniable, and that perspective saves much time by way of being able to avoid complicated explanations. If you are a member of the military and you are facing a divorce, you need to seek the help of San Diego military divorce lawyers who have served and who understand how to fight for clients’ rights. Contact the Men’s Legal Center today to schedule an initial consultation.
